About the artist

Simbari’s vivid figurative paintings draw on Mediterranean villages, coastlines, gardens, cafés, and festivals. Brilliant color and lively movement give these scenes a sense of warmth and immediacy.

He sketches from observation and develops the images through a palette-knife approach that joins disciplined composition with energetic surface texture. The result moves between recognizable places and expressive abstraction.
